Ratings and reviews

update: customer service worked on my problem of WiFi compatibility and now it's working fine. If you are having issues it's worth communicating with them because they are listening. (which is rare nowadays) original review: Very frustating app when you think you will watch something and it doesn't work , which seems like a lot lately.

Vod sucks... half the season gets added then they just stop. Currently have three shows were the episodes just stop mid season. Its freakin annoying! The chromecast also sucks. On my google tv its great but my chromecast will not cast vod episodes... it used to but not now. It literally shuts off every five minutes-it is so frustrating. I thought rogers taking over they might fix some of the bugs but nope. The app is VERY buggy!

*EDIT: 6months later, and still a waste of time. Shite app. Cue the Bot reponse to reach out....... Poor casting. You try to watch a show off the app, when away from home, and project on to a 'Chromecast' and it freezes continously throughout the show. Its ridiculous. Trying to watch an old episode of an HBO classic tv series(take your pick) and it drags on with the freezing. Painful. Literally 8ft from the high speed modem.
